So, I just started this diet about 3 days ago.

Basically you eat a ton of live things…(fruits, vegees, unprocessed foods- or close to it)

Basically, what I eat… 1/2 serving of whole wheat oat meal, cherries, and half a serving of snap peas for breakfast. For lunch, I have a small spinach salad with light balsamic vinigrette dressing and other vegees mixed in. For dinner, I have steamed spinach and a few oz’s of raw tuna. For snacks— geez — Banana, snap peas, negtarine, egg whites, raw spinach, and an apple. ————- That’s around 600 calories.

It’s sooo much food. The point is to basically stuff yourself with live foods… To lower your PH level… My friend followed this diet, and actually lost 10 lbs in like 15 days.

Well, I was just seeing what everyone else though of this diet… and to see who else has all tried it.

I haven’t lost any weight yet. But you are supposed to do this lil diet for about 2 weeks, stop for 3-4 days and go again..

I am always starving during and after my softball game. What should I eat right before or during the game that will keep me full, but not make me feel sluggish? I’m not into eating energy bars, or fruits for the game..I want to eat real food/snacks because I have a high metabolism

Okay, so this is what I have laid out to eat tomorrow, and I’m going to stick to it. I know that the food quality isn’t that good, but it’s a h*ll of a lot better than what I had been doing before. I plan to keep in calorie range like this, and then work my way into more veggies and fruits, and only drinking plain old water. Right now I’m accostomed to taste that I’ve had my entire life, but if I can ease into it, then it won’t feel like such a big change. Understand? So don’t rag on me for the food choices. I’m looking at calories right now, and then within the next month, food quality, such as fiber, carbs, less sodium, ect.

Applesauce= 80
Sandwich(Cheese and wheat + french’s mustard)=290
mandarin orange=50
capri sun=60
lunchable=270
apple=80
veggie thin crackers=150
light string cheese=70
and then a sparkling water=0

I will be drinking tons of water throughout the day, and I have about 30mins of PE and then a vollyball game. I usually play at least one game, if not two.

I know that it’s not a lot, and compared to what I was eating it’s practically nothing, calorie wise, but I wan’t to make a difference. I’ve gone long enough being chubby. I’m 5′7" and 154lbs. I used to be 145lbs. My goal is 125-135lbs by the end of september 2010. That’s a lot, but I can do it if I have the will.
This amount of calories equal 1050(roughly), and if I eat a big breakfast, I get sick, so I ususally stick to applesauce or something and eat more in the afternoon, which might not be smart, but it’s what works.

Okay, so don’t tell me that its bad for me, and that its going to give me bacteria or anything, but I love the taste of raw hamburger. I’m considering going on a raw food diet. I’ve looked around Google and found that nuts, veggies and fruits, raw meat are part of the diet. Is it a better diet for someone who doesn’t exercise that much? Can someone exactly tell me what is in a raw food diet and what its supposed to do/is for?

I have gained 20 lbs. due to my thyroid. I am now on meds but the weight isn’t dropping. I’ve increased my activity level, but the diet is still bad. I only like simple foods like meat, breads (love the carbs!), few veggies (only cooked) like broccoli, beans, cauliflower, potatoes and few fruits (strawberries, bananas, apples, grapes). I live in a rural community now with one grocery store… I can’t even find chicken there safe enough to eat! What can I do with such limited food choices??? Health food is very scarce in the entire county here… I hate it!

Thank you for your help!

16, female, 5 foot 7 inches, 181lbs. (Fat, I know, I know. At least I’m trying.)

I finally saved enough money with my job to afford a treadmill. I used to run at the park but I didn’t do it often because I hated going outside and running. Now I have a treadmill inside so I’ll be working out more often…any tips?

So far I’m going about 15 mins at 2.5mph each time, and I do that around 10 times a day. According to my treadmill that means I burn around ~600 cals a day. I really want to have my goal around ~1500 cals a day, so I started lifting 5lb weights while I walk, but I don’t know how much that is helping. I also brought up the incline on the tredmill a little.

My diet is mostly vegetables, with the bulk of it being white rice (Around 50%) and the rest are steamed vegetables and for one meal a day I eat some meat, usually a little bit of fish. I wrap my rice in seaweed because I like the taste of it…I’m avoiding cooking oils and fats completely so everything is steamed or baked, or toasted.
I’m eating lots of fruits, though. Maybe an apple and some figs, or a few mangoes/avocado on my rice.
I’m only drinking water and maybe once a day a half cup of cranberry juice or the green super food drink that I have in the morning.
I don’t go to school so I don’t eat the greasy fat foods they serve at schools.

Any tips on my regime? I’ve been doing this for about a week now, no significant weight loss so I’m not sure if I’m doing something wrong or maybe not enough working out.

Any recipes that are mainly rice and vegetables will ago be greatly loved! They don’t have to be delicious, just edible.
Wow, I didn’t know that about rice!
I’ll cut out most of the rice and replace it with just lots of water.
2lb a week should be normal for this workout plan? I lost 1.5lb this week so I guess that’s good. :)

The workout don’t really tire me out since I only go for around 15 minutes each, and I usually do something like listen to music or watch TV while I’m walking….
Thanks Dave H,

I’m taking protien supplements once a day, but at the same time I’m trying to avoid all the chemicals I hear are in store-bought meat. My dad is a fisherman so I do eat wild fish at least once a day…other than that I don’t really like how red meat tastes so I don’t eat it much.
I do try to keep my protein intake up with the supplements, since I know I need it. I also take coral calcium tablets which I believe has soy protein in it as well.

so i’ve been a vegan for a year and now i’m starting to eat raw foods only. i went to the grocery store yesterday and bought dates, carrots, apples, bananas, arugula, a papaya, watermelon, red bell pepper, almonds, avocado, bean sprouts and honey dew melon. so i’ve basically been eating a lot of fruits and veggies. i haven’t made any raw meals from recipes yet because they’re kind of daunting.
i’ve been eating more fruits than veggies also because i just like fruit a lot more. is it possible to each too much fruit?

if anyone could give me any pointers, or recipes, i’d really appreciate it :)

So for my New Year’s Resolution, I’ve decided to lose some weight, about 40 pounds or so. I’m thirteen, 5′3", and I weigh around 164. I don’t look quite as heavy as one would imagine, my body is closer to that a 17-18 year old, as I hit puberty around four years ago. I tend to gain weight in the hips-thigh area.

So I was wondering, what should I be eating? I don’t want to be on some ‘diet plan’, but what are some low fat, low cal, snacks and meals? And I probably prefer the taste of actually healthy foods over the so called ‘light’ junk foods. I’ve been eating stuff like fruits, salads, soups, fish, sandwiches, etc. and taking in about 500-800 calories a day. How many I should I be consuming?

And exercise, what type would be good for me? I’ve been just trying to go on walks, or do some real ‘exercising’ for about thirty minutes a day to start with. I know it would probably be better to go do something outside, but I live in south Georgia, and the weather is horrible, even in January.

Oh, and I feel the need to mention, I’m home-schooled, so I can’t really do any form of sport or anything at a school.
Oh, and also, I can’t really go out and do anything like that because the only thing within an hour of where I live is a Wal-Mart. Perhaps I should run around Wal-Mart? Annnd, I know going to the gym would be great, but when in real life, I have kind of bad SAD(Social Anxiety Disorder), so that would be like way too many people, and social interactions for me.

I feed my 5-year-old bird the Avian Science Super: Lovebird/Conure food. He also eats with me [pasta, well-cooked meat in small amounts, etc] and has a good amount of fruits. Of course I don’t feed him chocolate or avocados since we all know that’s bad, and will not give him onions because I heard they are poisonous for animals. So until I get that clarified, he won’t be having any.

I would just like some feeding suggestions so I know how to be a better bird owner, and which fruits are better for him than the other and if there are any better brands of bird feed out there. Right now he’s eating a banana

If this helps, this is the food I feed him + the ingredients: http://www.theperchstore.net/avscsuloco4l.html

I’m trying to eat healthy but since I can’t cook (actually, my mom just doesn’t let me use the oven) my food choices are very limited!

Drinking milk kind of grosses me out for some reason, so I don’t drink it. (I still take vitamin D from a pill) I still eat eggs, too. And also I don’t eat pork. It’s kind of bad for you. I eat vegtables (sp?) and fruits all the time. And bcuz I don’t drink milk, I drink water w/ my lunch @ school, and sometimes I’ll also drink it w/ my breakfast. I walk around the block a couple times a week during the spring and summer, and during the fall and winter I pretty much rely (sp?) on gym class for my exercise since it gets really cold in the winter where I live. What foods do I have 2 cut out of my diet so I can stick to this? (the only thing I can think of that has milk in that I’ll eat is probably like Pop-Tarts, and I hardly ever eat those). And also, what kind of exercises can I do indoors during the winter?
